Cheaper than mine that I just ordered, but I got a nicer mobo. This is a great deal.

What? I've worked at Best Buy for over a year, we have never had an i7 processor in our store or any processor for that matter. This is strictly an online only deal, no Best Buy store physically carries PC components like motherboards and processors.

it's based on marketing districts. your store may not get enough people buying like hard drives or optical drives....something of that sort.

Great rant lol

Haha, just wait until he sees the one that this dude left on the HIS 5970:

Not only is he somehow running 4 of these on some magical board, he managed to cram them along with everything else mentioned(including having extra space for a RAID card, since I have never seen a board that can do all those drives onboard) into an Antec 1200!! Which I have one of by the way, smaller than my HAF 932, so I call shenanigans.

Amazing Reviewed By: on 11/24/2009 Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day Pros: Wow where do i start, these cards are amazing in every way,shape and form. I just purchased 8 of these for my 2 machines running quad crossfire and was blown away. If you got 4 of these cards running it brings games like crysis to its knees and asks for more. I now run crysis at full max @ 110 FPS smooth as silk, if you got the silver spoon like me then dont hessitate and get 4 without blinking or thinking. Cons: NONE......................NONE at all, the fastest card and award winner for 2009-2010 hands down and nvidia cant touch these. Other Thoughts: Current Machine- Intel-975 @ 4.8 ghz water cooled 4x5970 quad xfire 6x 150gb in raid config 6x 300gb in raid config 4x 2TB storage 6x 4gb 2000mhz memory 2x 1600 watt psu's antec 1200 I have 2 of these machines currently set up and they destroy everything programmers can throw at it and spit it back out in seconds. Also if you plan on having as many drives as i do even in a full tower, be prepared to do some modding and prepared to water cool entire unit aside from HD,s because it does heat up fast but worth the heat. |
